My kids are always begging me to take them to grab Chinese food. They are obsessed with orange chicken but I am never really sure what’s in it….especially if they get it from a drive-thru. I wanted to create a version at home, made from scratch, with only ingredients I can pronounce. It still has the same incredible flavor they love. It’s a win-win in our home. This is the perfect time of year to whip up orange and lemon dishes especially this Chinese Orange Chicken.4 servings
